Lin Ruo ignored their pleas for mercy. She used her mental power to control the small stream of water, cleaned the level 3 space system crystal core, and then dragged it to her.
Lin Ruo immediately used his mental power to probe into the crystal core. The crystal core space was about 4,000 cubic meters, which was not very large. There were quite a lot of things inside, the most of which were living supplies, such as food, drinking water, fuel, and crystal cores. The abundance of these supplies showed that their organization was very wealthy.
What attracted her attention most were the neatly arranged medicines in the corner. Lin Ruo used her mental power to scan these medicines. Some of them were the same as the medicines she had just collected, and there were also two kinds of potions. These potions were all labeled with detailed descriptions of their effects.
In a corner of the space, Lin Ruo also saw many mutated plants that had been uprooted. The crystal cores of these mutated plants had been dug out, and they were no longer alive. Judging from the remaining energy on their branches, they should all be some level 3 mutated plants.
Thinking back to the conversation these people had over the plane, mentioning that her mutated plant forest met their mission criteria, she roughly guessed what was going on.
Lin Ruo withdrew her mental energy, placed the crystal core into her own space, and then calmly looked at the remaining ability users. "What are you doing in City B? Where did you get these drugs? Who is the doctor? Who wants to speak first?"
The several superhumans opposite them exchanged glances, looking at each other in bewilderment. Before they could make any further moves, they felt sharp thorns sprout from the plant branches binding them, piercing their bodies and constantly sucking away their flesh and blood.
Their energy and flesh were rapidly draining away, and their bodies were slowly shriveling up. These people knew that these plants were threatening them.
The group no longer dared to be careless and shouted loudly, "I'll talk! I'll talk!"
“We are all members of the Pharmaceutical Research Association. We had been developing in City C before, but we came to City B this time because of a task given to us by the doctor that we haven’t completed yet. We happened to hear that there is a place here with many advanced mutated plants, so we thought we would come to hunt and collect them.”
"By the way, bring the drugs we're researching to the B City base and see if we can seek cooperation."
"As for the doctor, his name is Xu Chenfeng. He is a level 4 wood-type ability user. He was originally an academician of the C City Medical Research Institute. Because he awakened his wood-type ability, his ability in drug research is even more outstanding. He founded the Drug Research Association. He usually prefers us to call him the doctor."
City C? Lin Ruo touched his chin. Wasn't that the territory of the Qinglin Gang before? Now the Pharmaceutical Research Association has risen up?
She blinked and tried to recall carefully. In her previous life, she had lived in the apocalypse for five years and none of these kinds of potions had appeared. How come these kinds of potions have been developed now, before the extreme heat has even passed?
Then she thought of a problem: before the apocalypse, she seemed to have taken away all the weapons of the Green Lin Gang in City C. In this life, City C is definitely not under the control of the Green Lin Gang, and it should not be as chaotic as in the previous life.
Perhaps in his previous life, this doctor was suppressed by the Qinglin Gang, which is why he couldn't research these things.
Thinking of the potions she had seen in the space before, Lin Ruo raised an eyebrow. This pharmaceutical research association was really amazing, as it could develop so many good medicines.
Leaving aside the medicine she collected on the helicopter, it can suppress low-level mutated plants.
The remaining two drugs are also quite effective. One can temporarily enhance superpowers. The instructions say that this drug can make the user's superpowers increase dramatically within half an hour. How much it can increase depends on the strength of their mental strength. Moreover, this drug has certain side effects. After half an hour, the user's body will be extremely weak and they will need to stay in bed for a day to recover.
Another type can accelerate the recovery of the user's supernatural abilities, and the speed of this acceleration is also related to the strength of one's mental power.
Considering the current post-apocalyptic world, these potions are all top-notch; this doctor is quite a talent.
She scanned the people and the helicopter with her mental energy again, finding only a radio on the helicopter and no locator.
If it really was these few people who came to her mutated forest to cause trouble on their own initiative, then she could let it go without pursuing it further, but she still wanted to go to City C when she had time.
People from Country Z share a common trait: they conceal their strengths. They often bring out items for trade that have already been replaced, a trait well reflected in the base in City B.
Since this pharmaceutical research association is putting these three medicines up for trade, it means they must have better ones. She couldn't help but be curious.
Having obtained the information he wanted, Lin Ruo turned around and walked back, storing the two helicopters into his spatial storage before waving to the mutated plants behind him.
Having lived with Lin Ruo for so long, those mutated plants already understood the meaning behind his actions. They knew that their master had finished asking his questions and that it was time for them to eat!
These superhumans were instantly dragged into the mutated forest, and they frantically cried out to Lin Ruo for help.
"We've already told you everything, why are you still trying to kill us!"
"We are Level 3 ability users, and we are very strong in combat. If you release us, we will definitely pledge our loyalty to you!"
"Please! Make them stop!"
"Help!"
"Waaah..."
To avoid disturbing Lin Ruo, these mutated plants thoughtfully extended their branches to gag the people, dragging them deeper into the forest before attempting to use them.
The sounds coming from the mutated forest grew fainter and fainter until they could no longer be heard. Finally, Lao Bai handed Lin Ruo a few level 3 crystal cores.
Lin Ruo didn't even look at them and directly put the crystal cores into her spatial storage.
She was now very excited and wanted to quickly separate the two potions for research. The remaining two potions were still very useful to her, especially the second one. However, she could use the potions in her space, which would definitely double the effect. Then she wouldn't have to worry about exhaustion anymore.
After preparing food for the animals at home, she was about to go upstairs to do her research when suddenly Ah Liu's willow branch tugged at her clothes. Lin Ruo turned her head in confusion and saw a bright red fruit resting on the lush green willow branch, stretched straight in front of her.
Lin Ruo's eyes lit up. Ah Liu's fruit had actually ripened! Could that mean her superpower could be upgraded?
